Him Poem by Britney Garlich

He is changed, he is gone… there is a too late.
He could have stopped it but he let his spirit deteriorate.

He hurts and his hurt reflects others, un-intentionally.
Maybe she can see past his behavior, maybe eventually.

Life comes with pain and hurt, but we all manage to live
I suppose that she will never see how some things never do really give.

To tolerate and accept is rewarding a pathetic attitude.
It just shows it wont end and she’ll never see gratitude.

I feel bad for him, but nothing makes his actions okay.
He needs to save himself and she just has to walk away.

He is changing her and she is obviously not the same.
I guess that’s just the goal in this ‘ever-forcing’ game

Too many times, far too many times and the recent look in his eye.
Experience made him believe and the lesson was only a lie.

Why are you suddenly lazy and why do you only sleep now?
Is it depending on the mood and what the many prescriptions allow.

She believes him, she was actually weaned to need him
He has always been the same, only now presents with more grim

He knows just what to say and she gives him everything
Moving on is hard because you cant always see the good that it will bring.

She deserves much better but she always gives him a 2nd chance
He cheats and always will, he can simply blind you with his trance.


He wont ever learn his lesson if he cant simply listen
He used to possess life and that’s now what he is missin’


Sometimes things don’t work out and she cant let it ruin her
He is the one who messed up and that’s all he should ever remember.


Whether it is sooner or later, I hope she can see.
Things aren’t and will never be the way they used to be.


Her pain will be, ….but in the long run, much less
You cant take someones happiness because your life became a mess

He is unacceptable, unrealistic, and extremely sly
He gave up on himself and not once attempted to try

Some people can change and some people never heal
Denial wont fix anything if you cant see what’s truly real

All you need is live and he cant possibly love anyone
For you must love yourself before anything is said and done.
